 *
 * @section sec_intro Introduction
 *
 * This is the documentation for the library interface of wimlib 1.5.3, a C
 * library for creating, modifying, extracting, and mounting files in the
 * Windows Imaging Format.  This documentation is intended for developers only.
 * If you have installed wimlib and want to know how to use the @b wimlib-imagex
 * program, please see the README file or manual pages.
 *
 * @section sec_installing_and_compiling Installing and Compiling
 *
 * wimlib uses the GNU autotools, so, on UNIX-like systems, it should be easy to
 * install with <code>configure && make && sudo make install</code>; however,
 * please see the README for more information about installing it.
 *
 * To use wimlib in your program after installing it, include wimlib.h and link
 * your program with @c -lwim.
 *
 * As of wimlib 1.5.0, wimlib.h is also compatible with C++.
 *
 * Note: before calling any other function declared in wimlib.h,
 * wimlib_global_init() can (and in some cases, must) be called.  See its
 * documentation for more details.
 *
 * @section sec_basic_wim_handling_concepts Basic WIM handling concepts
 *
 * wimlib wraps up a WIM file in an opaque ::WIMStruct structure.   There are
 * two ways to create such a structure: wimlib_open_wim(), which opens a WIM
 * file and creates a ::WIMStruct representing it, and wimlib_create_new_wim(),
 * which creates a new ::WIMStruct that initially contains no images and does
 * not yet have a backing on-disk file.  See @ref G_creating_and_opening_wims
 * for more details.
 *
 * A WIM file, represented by a ::WIMStruct, contains zero or more images.
 * Images can be extracted (or "applied") using wimlib_extract_image(), added
 * (or "captured" or "appended") using wimlib_add_image(), deleted using
 * wimlib_delete_image(), exported using wimlib_export_image(), and updated or
 * modified using wimlib_update_image().  However, changes made to a WIM
 * represented by a ::WIMStruct have no persistent effect until the WIM is
 * actually written to an on-disk file.  This can be done using wimlib_write(),
 * but if the WIM was originally opened using wimlib_open_wim(), then
 * wimlib_overwrite() can be used instead.  See @ref G_extracting_wims, @ref
 * G_modifying_wims, and @ref G_writing_and_overwriting_wims for more details.
 *
 * Note that with this ::WIMStruct abstraction, performing many tasks on WIM
 * files is a multi-step process.  For example, to add, or "append" an image to
 * an existing stand-alone WIM file in a way similar to <b>wimlib-imagex
 * append</b>, you must call the following functions:
 *
 * 1. wimlib_open_wim()
 * 2. wimlib_add_image()
 * 3. wimlib_overwrite()
 *
 * This design is very much on purpose as it makes the library more useful in
 * general by allowing functions to be composed in different ways.  For example,
 * you can make multiple changes to a WIM and commit them all to the underlying
 * file in only one overwrite operation, which is more efficient.
 *
 * @section sec_cleaning_up Cleaning up
 *
 * After you are done with any ::WIMStruct, you can call wimlib_free() to free
 * all resources associated with it.  Also, when you are completely done with
 * using wimlib in your program, you can call wimlib_global_cleanup() to free
 * any other resources allocated by the library.
 *
 * @section sec_error_handling Error Handling
 *
 * Most functions in wimlib return 0 on success and a positive error code on
 * failure.  Use wimlib_get_error_string() to get a string that describes an
 * error code.  wimlib also can print error messages to standard error itself
 * when an error happens, and these may be more informative than the error code;
 * to enable this, call wimlib_set_print_errors().  Please note that this is for
 * convenience only, and some errors can occur without a message being printed.
 * Currently, error messages and strings (as well as all documentation, for that
 * matter) are only available in English.
 *
 * @section sec_encodings Locales and character encodings
 *
 * To support Windows as well as UNIX-like systems, wimlib's API typically takes
 * and returns strings of ::wimlib_tchar, which are in a platform-dependent
 * encoding.
 *
 * On Windows, each ::wimlib_tchar is 2 bytes and is the same as a "wchar_t",
 * and the encoding is UTF-16LE.
 *
 * On UNIX-like systems, each ::wimlib_tchar is 1 byte and is simply a "char",
 * and the encoding is the locale-dependent multibyte encoding.  I recommend you
 * set your locale to a UTF-8 capable locale to avoid any issues.  Also, by
 * default, wimlib on UNIX will assume the locale is UTF-8 capable unless you
 * call wimlib_global_init() after having set your desired locale.
 *
 * @section sec_advanced Additional information and features
 *
 *
 * @subsection subsec_mounting_wim_images Mounting WIM images
 *
 * See @ref G_mounting_wim_images.
 *
 * @subsection subsec_progress_functions Progress Messages
 *
 * See @ref G_progress.
 *
 * @subsection subsec_non_standalone_wims Non-standalone WIMs
 *
 * See @ref G_nonstandalone_wims.
 *
 * @subsection subsec_pipable_wims Pipable WIMs
 *
 * wimlib supports a special "pipable" WIM format which unfortunately is @b not
 * compatible with Microsoft's software.  To create a pipable WIM, call
 * wimlib_write(), wimlib_write_to_fd(), or wimlib_overwrite() with
 * ::WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_PIPABLE specified.  Pipable WIMs are pipable in both
 * directions, so wimlib_write_to_fd() can be used to write a pipable WIM to a
 * pipe, and wimlib_extract_image_from_pipe() can be used to apply an image from
 * a pipable WIM.  wimlib can also transparently open and operate on pipable WIM
 * s using a seekable file descriptor using the regular function calls (e.g.
 * wimlib_open_wim(), wimlib_extract_image()).
 *
 * See the documentation for the <b>--pipable</b> flag of <b>wimlib-imagex
 * capture</b> for more information about pipable WIMs.
 *
 * @subsection subsec_thread_safety Thread Safety
 *
 * wimlib is thread-safe, with the following exceptions:
 * - Different threads cannot operate on the same ::WIMStruct at the same time;
 *   they must use different ::WIMStruct's.
 * - You must call wimlib_global_init() in one thread before calling any other
 *   functions.
 * - wimlib_set_print_errors() and wimlib_set_memory_allocator() both apply globally.
 * - wimlib_mount_image(), while it can be used to mount multiple WIMs
 *   concurrently in the same process, will daemonize the entire process when it
 *   does so for the first time.  This includes changing the working directory
 *   to the root directory.
 *
 * @subsection subsec_limitations Limitations
 *
 * This section documents some technical limitations of wimlib not already
 * documented in the man page for @b wimlib-imagex.
 *
 * - The old WIM format from Vista pre-releases is not supported.
 * - Compressed resource chunk sizes other than 32768 are not supported.  This
 *   doesn't seem to be a real problem because the chunk size always seems to be
 *   this value.
 * - wimlib does not provide a clone of the @b PEImg tool, or the @b Dism
 *   functionality other than that already present in @b ImageX, that allows you
 *   to make certain Windows-specific modifications to a Windows PE image, such
 *   as adding a driver or Windows component.  Such a tool could be implemented
 *   on top of wimlib.
 *
 * @subsection more_info More information
 *
 * You are advised to read the README as well as the manual pages for
 * <b>wimlib-imagex</b>, since not all relevant information is repeated here in
 * the API documentation.

 * @section sec_adding_images Capturing and adding WIM images
 *
 * As described in @ref sec_basic_wim_handling_concepts, capturing a new WIM or
 * appending an image to an existing WIM is a multi-step process, but at its
 * core is wimlib_add_image() or an equivalent function.  Normally,
 * wimlib_add_image() takes an on-disk directory tree and logically adds it to a
 * ::WIMStruct as a new image.  However, when supported by the build of the
 * library, there is also a special NTFS volume capture mode (entered when
 * ::WIMLIB_ADD_FLAG_NTFS is specified) that allows adding the image directly
 * from an unmounted NTFS volume.
 *
 * Another function, wimlib_add_image_multisource() is also provided.  It
 * generalizes wimlib_add_image() to allow combining multiple files or directory
 * trees into a single WIM image in a configurable way.
 *
 * For maximum customization of WIM image creation, it is also possible to add a
 * completely empty WIM image with wimlib_add_empty_image(), then update it with
 * wimlib_update_image().  (This is in fact what wimlib_add_image() and
 * wimlib_add_image_multisource() do internally.)
 *
 * Note that some details of how image addition/capture works are documented
 * more fully in the manual page for <b>wimlib-imagex capture</b>.
 *
 * @section sec_deleting_images Deleting WIM images
 *
 * wimlib_delete_image() can delete an image from a ::WIMStruct.  But as usual,
 * wimlib_write() or wimlib_overwrite() must be called to cause the changes to
 * be made persistent in an on-disk WIM file.
 *
 * @section sec_exporting_images Exporting WIM images
 *
 * wimlib_export_image() can copy, or "export", an image from one WIM to
 * another.
 *
 * @section sec_other_modifications Other modifications
 *
 * wimlib_update_image() can add, delete, and rename files in a WIM image.
 *
 * wimlib_set_image_name(), wimlib_set_image_descripton(), and
 * wimlib_set_image_flags() can change other image metadata.
 *
 * wimlib_set_wim_info() can change information about the WIM file itself, such
 * as the boot index.
 */

/** @defgroup G_extracting_wims Extracting WIMs
 *
 * @brief Extract files, directories, and images from a WIM.
 *
 * wimlib_extract_image() extracts, or "applies", an image from a WIM
 * (represented, as usual, by a ::WIMStruct).  This normally extracts the image
 * to a directory, but when supported by the build of the library there is also
 * a special NTFS volume extraction mode (entered when
 * ::WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NTFS is specified) that allows extracting a WIM image
 * directly to an unmounted NTFS volume.  Various other flags allow further
 * customization of image extraction.
 *
 * Another function, wimlib_extract_files(), is also provided.  It can extract
 * certain files or directories from a WIM image, instead of a full image.
 *
 * A third function, wimlib_extract_image_from_pipe(), allows an image to be
 * extracted from a pipable WIM sent over a pipe; see @ref subsec_pipable_wims.
 *
 * Note that some details of how image extraction/application works are
 * documented more fully in the manual pages for <b>wimlib-imagex apply</b> and
 * <b>wimlib-imagex extract</b>.
 */

/** @defgroup G_mounting_wim_images Mounting WIM images
 *
 * @brief Mount and unmount WIM images.
 *
 * On UNIX-like systems supporting FUSE (such as Linux), wimlib supports
 * mounting images from WIM files either read-only or read-write.  To mount an
 * image, call wimlib_mount_image().  To unmount an image, call
 * wimlib_unmount_image().  Mounting can be done without root privileges because
 * it is implemented using FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace).  If wimlib is
 * compiled with the <code>--without-fuse</code> flag, these functions will be
 * available but will fail with ::WIMLIB_ERR_UNSUPPORTED.  Note that mounting an
 * image read-write is an alternative to calling wimlib_update_image().
 */

/** @defgroup G_progress Progress Messages
 *
 * @brief Track the progress of long WIM operations.
 *
 * When operating on large archives, operations such as extraction will
 * naturally take a while to complete.  Because of this and to improve the
 * potential user-friendliness of library clients, a number of functions take a
 * pointer to a progress function of type ::wimlib_progress_func_t.  This
 * function will be called periodically during the WIM operation(s) to report on
 * the progress of the operation (for example, how many bytes have been written
 * so far).
 */

/** @defgroup G_writing_and_overwriting_wims Writing and Overwriting WIMs
 *
 * @brief Write and overwrite on-disk WIM files.
 *
 * As described in @ref sec_basic_wim_handling_concepts, these functions are
 * critical to the design of the library as they allow new or modified WIMs to
 * actually be written to on-disk files.  Generally, wimlib_write() is the
 * function you need to call to write a new WIM file, and wimlib_overwrite() is
 * the function you need to call to persistently update an existing WIM file.
 */

/** @defgroup G_nonstandalone_wims Creating and handling non-standalone WIMs
 *
 * @brief Create and handle non-standalone WIMs, such as split and delta WIMs.
 *
 * Normally, ::WIMStruct represents a WIM file, but there's a bit more to it
 * than that.  Normally, WIM files are "standalone".  However, WIM files can
 * also be arranged in non-standalone ways, such as a set of on-disk files that
 * together form a single "split WIM" or "delta WIM".  Such arrangements are
 * fully supported by wimlib.  However, as a result, in such cases a ::WIMStruct
 * created from one of these on-disk files initially only partially represents
 * the full WIM and needs to, in effect, be logically combined with other
 * ::WIMStruct's before performing certain operations, such as extracting files
 * with wimlib_extract_image() or wimlib_extract_files().  This is done by
 * calling wimlib_reference_resource_files() or wimlib_reference_resources().
 *
 * wimlib_write() can create delta WIMs as well as standalone WIMs, but a
 * specialized function (wimlib_split()) is needed to create a split WIM.

 * for convenience only.  These functions normally do not need to be used.

 * @ingroup G_writing_and_overwriting_wims
 *
 * Overwrites the file that the WIM was originally read from, with changes made.
 * This only makes sense for ::WIMStruct's obtained from wimlib_open_wim()
 * rather than wimlib_create_new_wim().
 *
 * There are two ways that a WIM may be overwritten.  The first is to do a full
 * rebuild.  In this mode, the new WIM is written to a temporary file and then
 * renamed to the original file after it is has been completely written.  The
 * temporary file is made in the same directory as the original WIM file.  A
 * full rebuild may take a while, but can be used even if images have been
 * modified or deleted, will produce a WIM with no holes, and has little chance
 * of unintentional data loss because the temporary WIM is fsync()ed before
 * being renamed to the original WIM.
 *
 * The second way to overwrite a WIM is by appending to the end of it and
 * overwriting the header.  This can be much faster than a full rebuild, but the
 * disadvantage is that some space will be wasted.  Writing a WIM in this mode
 * begins with writing any new file resources *after* everything in the old WIM,
 * even though this will leave a hole where the old lookup table, XML data, and
 * integrity were.  This is done so that the WIM remains valid even if the
 * operation is aborted mid-write.  The WIM header is only overwritten at the
 * very last moment, and up until that point the WIM will be seen as the old
 * version.
 *
 * By default, wimlib_overwrite() does the append-style overwrite described
 * above, unless resources in the WIM are arranged in an unusual way or if
 * images have been deleted from the WIM.  Use the flag
 * ::WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_REBUILD to explicitly request a full rebuild, and use the
 * ::WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_SOFT_DELETE to request the in-place overwrite even if
 * images have been deleted from the WIM.
 *
 * In the temporary-file overwrite mode, no changes are made to the WIM on
 * failure, and the temporary file is deleted if possible.  Abnormal termination
 * of the program will result in the temporary file being orphaned.  In the
 * direct append mode, the WIM is truncated to the original length on failure;
 * and while abnormal termination of the program will result in extra data
 * appended to the original WIM, it should still be a valid WIM.
 *
 * If this function completes successfully, no more functions should be called
 * on @p wim other than wimlib_free().  You must use wimlib_open_wim() to read
 * the WIM file anew.
 *
 * @param wim
 *      Pointer to the ::WIMStruct for the WIM file to write.  There may have
 *      been in-memory changes made to it, which are then reflected in the

 * @param write_flags

 * @param num_threads
 *      Number of threads to use for compression (see wimlib_write()).
 * @param progress_func

 *      read-write or is currently modifying the WIM in-place.
 * @retval ::WIMLIB_ERR_NO_FILENAME
